The firm has hopes that one day AA can be as big as American Eagle Outfitters and Abercrombie & Fitch. It's pretty hot on A&F's tail at least as far as risque ads go.

Dov Charney will still be kept on as figurehead. So perhaps with luck, his face can be spread even further across America as that creepy guy staring at you from your TV. You know, like the Burger King.
